So all the wives were waiting for me to break up with them.

To his question, someone simply replied coldly, "The young lady is looking for you."

"Young Miss?" The old man was taken aback.

Swipe!

The van's doors were closed, and the group disappeared onto the street, only to reappear in an abandoned warehouse near Victoria Harbour.

The warehouse was full of dust and contained some abandoned, rusty steel, indicating that it hadn't been used for a long time.

The old man was forced into the warehouse and saw many of his "old friends," including Chen Tangtang.

Li Muyun did not intend to handle the situation in Hong Kong himself.

Firstly, most of the people who caused trouble in Hong Kong this time were Chen Tangtang's father's old subordinates, while Li Muyun's surname is Li, not Chen, so it is inappropriate for him to handle this matter.

Secondly, having Chen Tangtang handle this scare tactic will allow her to establish authority and make it easier for her to manage her subordinates in the future.

"Do you know why I called you here?" Chen Tangtang asked with her hands behind her back and a serious expression.

The group of people who had been brought in exchanged glances.

After a while, someone feigned ignorance and asked, "May I ask what business you have with me, Miss?"

Chen Tangtang looked at the person who spoke, her gaze hardening. "Don't pretend to be confused. If you confess, I might be lenient with you."

"I really don't know what you're talking about, Miss." Clearly, this person was determined to stick to their guns.

Confess and you'll be treated leniently? Anyone who believes that is out of their mind.

Chen Tangtang frowned slightly and looked at Rose standing next to her. Li Muyun had told her before she returned to Hong Kong that if anyone was stubborn and unwilling to confess honestly, Rose could help them.

"Rose."

"Young Miss." Rose stepped forward.

"You know what to do, right?" Although Chen Tangtang didn't know what Rose would do, it didn't stop her from pretending to be a dignified young lady.

"Rose understands." A glint flashed in Rose's eyes, and she nodded slightly before raising her hand in a gesture.

Two people immediately emerged from the darkness of the warehouse and grabbed the stubborn man from both sides.

"What are you going to do?" the man asked, sounding a little flustered.

"Take him away," Rose said calmly.

"I have rendered service to the Chen family, I have shed blood for the master, you cannot treat me like this! Miss! Miss!"

The man screamed shrilly, but Chen Tangtang remained unmoved. He was forced into a small room behind the warehouse, where an effeminate man was applying black nail polish.

"I will not be tortured into confessing." The man puffed out his chest as soon as he entered the room. "My loyalty to the old lady and the young lady is as clear as day. Once the young lady understands my loyalty and lets me out, I'll make you pay!"

"?"

The effeminate man paused slightly, then chuckled, "I didn't expect you to dare threaten us? I hope you can maintain your arrogant demeanor later."

"Someone, bring the food up here and let this person take a look."

At the command of the effeminate man, someone quickly brought in an iron pot from outside, which was bubbling with what appeared to be oil.

"To prevent you from thinking we're bluffing you."

The effeminate man stood up, walked up to the man, and said with a smile, took a fat rat handed to him by his subordinate, and threw it into the pot.

Squeak squeak squeak~~

With a scream from the rat, an enticing aroma of meat filled the small room.

The effeminate man, seeing the once arrogant man's face completely change, grabbed his hand and, along with his own, shoved it into the pot.

"Wait! I'll tell you! I'll tell you everything!"

"Tsk, I was hoping you could have a little more backbone." The effeminate man sat back down, picked up a pen and paper, and said, "Go on, and remember to be detailed."

Once one person gave in, others, even if they still wanted to deny it, all confessed honestly after going to the small room.

After listening to their explanations one by one and deciding on their punishments, Chen Tangtang shook her head slightly as she looked at their ashen faces.

After years of pampered living, these people are no longer the 'ruthless people' they once were, and have gone from being promoters to a cancer to the Chen family.

"From now on, you should stay in Hong Kong and enjoy your retirement. I will arrange for others to take over the power you hold."

Rose suddenly strode over and whispered a few words in Chen Tangtang's ear.

"Miss, someone is causing trouble for the young master. Madam asked me to come and ask you how you plan to handle this?"

Chen Tangtang's expression changed instantly, "Who is it?!"

Rose nodded toward the old man who was finally taken to the warehouse, "This is his son, named Chen Jiacheng."

Chen Tangtang looked at the old man, "Your son actually dared to cause trouble for my man?"

The old man, recalling his conversation with his son, assumed his son's plan had succeeded and hurriedly said, "Miss, give me the phone, I'll call him right away and have my son apologize to that person."

"Hmph, no need. I'll handle it. Just be prepared." Chen Tangtang gave a cold snort and turned to leave.

Upon hearing this, the old man's expression changed drastically, and he hurriedly cried out, "Young Miss, my son was just temporarily bewitched. Please forgive him this time, considering how hard I have worked for the Chen family all these years."

Chen Tangtang ignored her completely and just walked out on her own.

Seeing this, the old man gritted his teeth, mustered his courage, and chased after them.

"Please, young lady..."

"Shut up!"

…………

Hangcheng.

Xiao Chuchu has already returned to Hangzhou after attending the meeting in the capital.

Today, she also arranged to meet Zhou You.

Near Times Square, a familiar coffee shop, a familiar location, and naturally, a familiar waiter.

The waiter placed a cup of coffee in front of Xiao Chuchu and Zhou You respectively.

He first glanced at the sea king, whom he hadn't seen in a long time but couldn't forget because he had left such a deep impression on him, and then looked at the small, cute, and adorable Xiao Chuchu.

As he backed away, he frowned, sensing that things were not so simple.

Could this ultimate player be someone who's gotten tired of beautiful women and started playing with little girls?

Isn't this too much of a punishment?

372. Lolicon?

It shouldn't be that bad.

The waiter quickly dismissed the absurd thought that had just crossed his mind; child molestation was illegal.

As Xiao Chuchu was enjoying her caramel macchiato, her small body suddenly trembled slightly as she felt a chill.

"Is someone secretly mocking me?" She put down her coffee, her brow furrowing slightly.

Xiao Chuchu muttered something to herself, shook her head, and didn't dwell on it anymore. "Never mind, I'll get back to business first."

She had finally managed to find some free time to meet with Zhou You, as she had been very busy ever since returning from the capital, attending countless meetings.

She looked up at Zhou You, who was also looking at her.

"What brings you here today?" Zhou You asked, taking the initiative to speak.

Xiao Chuchu propped her two slender arms up on the table, interlacing her fingers. "Can't I chat with my godson if I have nothing to do?"

"Of course," Zhou You replied somewhat hesitantly.

“You don’t need to be so reserved. I’m your godmother, so I’m practically family to you.” Xiao Chuchu raised her little head and added earnestly, “Just treat me like your mother.”

"..." Zhou You lowered his head and stared at the 'little loli' with a frozen expression.

He was reserved precisely because Xiao Chuchu was his godmother.

He wasn't the type to be shy, but it really took a lot of courage to call this 'little loli' godmother.

"I'll still call you Sister Lian," Zhou You said after thinking for a moment, choosing a name he could barely bring himself to use.

"That's fine too." Xiao Chuchu didn't argue too much with Zhou You about the form of address.

She quickly steered the conversation to the question she wanted to ask, "How are things going with those guys lately?"

"Hmm..." Zhou You felt a sense of déjà vu when he saw Xiao Chuchu showing concern for his relationship with the older sisters.

"What? Did you two have a fight?"

Xiao Chuchu immediately put on a concerned expression, "If you have any problems, you can tell me, and I will do my best to help you."

Upon hearing Xiao Chuchu's words, Zhou You finally understood where his sense of déjà vu came from.

"Sister Lian, how do you plan to help me? You're not going to have a mock date with me, are you?" If Xiao Chuchu said something like that, he would definitely refuse outright. He couldn't let Sister Mo's situation happen again.

"Huh?" Xiao Chuchu suddenly leaned back, shocked. "You're a lolicon?"

"???"

"Sister Lian, please don't talk nonsense. How could I possibly be a lolicon?" Zhou You quickly explained when he caught a glimpse of the waiter who had started reaching for his phone because of Xiao Chuchu's exclamation.

"Then why did you go on a date with me?" Xiao Chuchu asked back after straightening her back.

"I just asked Sister Lian how you planned to help me, and then gave an example," Zhou You continued to explain.

Xiao Chuchu appeared remarkably clear-headed. "Why should I go on a date with you just because I help you? Does your logic even make sense?"

"..." Zhou You had no answer.

He trusted Ning Moxin too much back then, which made him easily fooled by her. In the end, he didn't lose anything; in fact, he made a profit.

He forcefully changed the subject, "Sister Lian, why are you suddenly so concerned about my relationship with Mingyue and the others?"

"because……"

Xiao Chuchu rested her hands on the table again, interlacing her fingers to make herself look serious. "...If you have a conflict with them, Hangzhou's GDP might drop by a few percentage points."

"GDP? Sister Lian, aren't you overthinking this?" Zhou You was taken aback. He was just happily dating the older women, it couldn't be that dramatic, could it?

"Hmph, naive."
